Burnout is Real and “Pandemic Fatigue” isn’t the Only Culprit

Early this year, Erin Durant, partner and litigator at Borden Ladner Gervais LLP (BLG), wrote an article documenting lessons learned from her burnout in January of 2021 – read that article here.

Since then, Erin has been featured in an article by The Globe and Mail, which details why we can no longer blame working-from-home burnout on “pandemic fatigue” but that
there a multitude of other contributing factors at play – read it (with a subscription) here.

Erin’s most recent post is called, “Why Speaking About Mental Health as a Leader is Not Brave – but Necessary” and the title speaks for itself. The article is a must read – you can find it here.
